How hard was it getting those emblems off? I'm getting my new fender emblems tomorrow and was just wondering how much of a pain it was. I got my heat gun and fishin' line all set.

That looks pretty sharp with those on there!

Love the look, man. How much did you pay for them?

Thanks a lot man! And they weren't too bad.. just time consuming. I used a hair dryer and fishing line. I just held the hair dryer to the side of the emblem as to get the air underneath it. That softens up the glue a little bit.. I just doubled up the fishing line and started sawing away. After a bit I'd just heat it up again and keep doing it. The worse part is getting all the glue off.. I used a razor blade real carefully to get the thick stuff off. After that some Goo Gone and some elbow grease. You don't exactly need to get all the tape off.. just where the emblem won't cover.. such as right underneath it and in the middle of the 0 on the emblem.

Thanks brother! They weren't cheap, but $75 shipped. Doesn't seem worthy being that they're just not very durable plastic, but they're still pretty sweet
